This is a trail maintenance/stewardship project. A variety of trail enhancements will be the group’s focus, from brushing back vegetation with loppers and hand clippers to clearing a new segment of the trail. Bring water, work gloves and loppers or hand clippers if you have your own. (They will have gloves and tools, but can use additional if volunteers can bring them.) Please RSVP to Deb at dbrockway8@gmail.com.
